Small scale Alfvénic structure in the aurora

K Stasiewicz, P Bellan, C Chaston, C Kletzing… - Space Science …, 2000 - Springer
This paper presents a comprehensive review of dispersive Alfvén waves in space and
laboratory plasmas. We start with linear properties of Alfvén waves and show how the …

Theories and observations of ion energization and outflow in the high latitude magnetosphere

M André, A Yau - Space Science Reviews, 1997 - Springer
A review is given of several mechanisms causing outflow at high latitudes of ionospheric
ions to the terrestrial magnetosphere. The upward ion motion along the geomaagnetic field …

Properties of small‐scale Alfvén waves and accelerated electrons from FAST

CC Chaston, JW Bonnell, CW Carlson… - Journal of …, 2003 - Wiley Online Library
The FAST spacecraft observes Alfvénic fluctuations in field quantities throughout the auroral
oval. In this report, we show preliminary results from a statistical study of Alfvén waves with …

Ion energization mechanisms at 1700 km in the auroral region

M André, P Norqvist, L Andersson… - Journal of …, 1998 - Wiley Online Library
Observations obtained by the Freja satellite at altitudes around 1700 km in the high‐latitude
magnetosphere are used to study ion energization perpendicular to the geomagnetic field …

Kinetic theory of the Alfvén wave acceleration of auroral electrons

RL Lysak, Y Song - Journal of Geophysical Research: Space …, 2003 - Wiley Online Library
Recent observations have indicated that in addition to the classical “inverted‐V” type
electron acceleration, auroral electrons often have a field‐aligned distribution that is broad …

Broadband ELF plasma emission during auroral energization: 1. Slow ion acoustic waves

JE Wahlund, AI Eriksson, B Holback… - Journal of …, 1998 - Wiley Online Library
High‐resolution measurements by the Freja spacecraft of broadband extremely low
frequency (BB‐ELF) emission from dc up to the lower hybrid frequency (a few kHz) are …

Interferometric determination of broadband ELF wave phase velocity within a region of transverse auroral ion acceleration

J Bonnell, P Kintner, JE Wahlund… - Geophysical …, 1996 - Wiley Online Library
Broadband electric field fluctuations with typical amplitudes of 10–20 mV/m peak‐to‐peak
and frequencies from 0 Hz to 3 kHz (BB‐ELF) were observed coincident with a region of≤ …

The AMICIST auroral sounding rocket: A comparison of transverse ion acceleration mechanisms

KA Lynch, RL Arnoldy, PM Kintner… - Geophysical research …, 1996 - Wiley Online Library
Recent auroral sounding rocket data illustrate the relative significance of two transverse
acceleration of ion (TAI) mechanisms for initiating nightside auroral ion outflow. First, the …
